The field has 2 main effects: + +1. Checking out an "available" copy will no longer result in an override-able + "COPY_NOT_AVAILABLE" alert for staff. The copy will checkout without + status warnings. + +2. "Available" copies will appear in catalog searches where "limit to + available" is selected as a search filter. + +By default, the "Available" and "Reshelving" statuses have the "Is Available" +flag set. The flag may be applied to local/custom statues via the copy +status admin interface. +
